Post subject: Insanity?
Please forgive my ranting... it came out nice though...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
They say there's a fine line between genius and insanity. Well, first off, who the crap are THEY? And why do THEY keep saying things if THEY don't even want to fess up to who THEY are? Well, anyway. I seem to have tripped over this fine line from genius and plunged deeply into insanity. And you know, it's really not that bad. Being crazy may seem like a pain, but hey, you get away with lots of stuff. Why? Because you're crazy. I mean, I carry around a Sean Biggerstaff doll everywhere I go and people don't care. They did at first, but now they just see him and me and say 'Oh, it's that girl with a doll. She's crazy,' and continue walking. I also am known for my polygamist status. Who am I marrying exactly? Why, a list of at least thirty gorgeous men in the entertainment business of course. Oh wait; make that thirty-one, Ashton Kutcher has just been added to the list. And how exactly am I going to marry them all? Well, I plan to move to Utah and become a Mormon. Mormon's are crazy too so I'm sure they'll let us stay with them. My humming and unique style of dress have also brought me fame as the crazy girl, but hey, I'm crazy. So now, you may be thinking, 'Alright and why am I reading this?' It's simple, you care and are reading because you want to be me, well, not me, just crazy like me. Yup. Insanity is the life. And if you're a girl, you care because you've finally found someone who has made it across the line to tell you that it's alright and that you don't have to worry any more. And that it's really okay to wear pajamas outside of the house and not brush your hair. And if you're a boy, yah, why ARE you reading this? You're either really brave, really stupid or really gay. I mean, an in depth look into the mind of a crazy GIRL? Wow, if you don't make it out alive, don't blame me. But anyway, that's not the real question to ask yourself. The REAL question is why AREN'T you reading this? You're not reading this because you are too busy being sane and worrying about what other people think of you. People don't bother me about the way I dress, the way I talk to myselves, the way I walk around, the way I do my hair or anything. I'm totally free. Why? Because I'm crazy.
Now, I'm not saying go out and be insane, I didn't try to do it. It just happened. One minute I'm on the more genius side of the line, one B+ and lower P.S.A.T. scores later I've been tossed nonchalantly into insanity. So why are you reading again? Because you want to know what it's like to be free. Free to be different. Free to choose. Free to be, well, free. So, there's a whole bunch of 'different' people out there. You know, the ones who all shop at the same store and buy the same clothes with the same friends so that they all look different together by being the same? Yah, them. Well, they really aren't that different, and anywhere they go to be different they'll still all be the same. But me, I'm different. Why? Because I'm crazy. I was the same when I was on the other side of the line with the geniuses, but now that I've crossed over I'm different in my insanity. It's great, isn't it? By doing nothing more than failing one test I've succeeded in grasping the ultimate goal: difference. I have finally achieved it. Pretty cool, eh?
Apparently not cool enough. Insanity is great. Freedom is great. Difference is great. But the loneliness that comes with all of it isn't. I mean, I'm still with all my friends but there's a line between us. It's the same line that denominates genius and insanity. We get lonely too. And when I say we, I'm not talking about the whole community of crazies, but myself. You can't group all crazy people together, because we aren't the same, which is why we're different. All of you, you sane people of the world, you're all the same. No offense or anything, but it's true. You're all too preoccupied with other's perceptions of you that you fail to perceive yourself. Insanity frees you from the grasp of sanity's judgment and gives you freedom to judge yourself. And THAT my friends, is why you want to be insane. Even if being insane only means letting go of society's pressures and expectations and images. You're still free. Being insane means being a minority of one, at least for now. Hopefully one day, this side of the line I stand on won't be the minority but the majority. Maybe one day we'll all be so insane as to not care what anyone else thinks of us that insanity will be embraced as sanity. What makes up insanity anyway? Difference. The 'norm' is marked as sane and everything else insane. So is it really very sane to base your worth off of test scores or opinions? Is it sane to try so hard to impress upon other people that you are just like them you forget yourself? Is my side of the line the side of insanity or sanity? I personally believe myself to be quite sane, it's you guys who call me crazy.

I too have plunged deep into insanity, and you are completely right. It is a lot of fun. I hope to see more of this type of poetry in the future.
